If the function ƒ defined on $$\left( { - {1 \over 3},{1 \over 3}} \right)$$ by

f(x) = $$\left\{ {\matrix{ {{1 \over x}{{\log }_e}\left( {{{1 + 3x} \over {1 - 2x}}} \right),} & {when\,x \ne 0} \cr {k,} & {when\,x = 0} \cr } } \right.$$

is continuous, then k is equal to_______.

If the system of linear equations,
x + y + z = 6
x + 2y + 3z = 10
3x + 2y + $$\lambda $$z = $$\mu $$
has more than two solutions, then $$\mu $$ - $$\lambda $$² is equal to ______.

Let y = y(x) be the solution curve of the differential equation,

$$\left( {{y^2} - x} \right){{dy} \over {dx}} = 1$$, satisfying y(0) = 1. This curve intersects the x-axis at a point whose abscissa is :

Let $${a_1}$$ , $${a_2}$$ , $${a_3}$$ ,....... be a G.P. such that
$${a_1}$$ < 0, $${a_1}$$ + $${a_2}$$ = 4 and $${a_3}$$ + $${a_4}$$ = 16.
If $$\sum\limits_{i = 1}^9 {{a_i}} = 4\lambda $$, then $$\lambda $$ is equal to:
